Beginning Painting: new project - Full Color Still Life

Beginning Painting

We are starting the full color still life project (Due: 10-27-2014)

Full Color Still Life

The still life has a long tradition in art. It is an especially useful tool in honing ones observational skills and for long, controlled study of an object or objects. In this project we will address a number of goals and challenges.

Goals addressed in this project:
-Accurate Color mixing and matching to objects in Still Life.
-Laying out an interesting Composition
-Use of Layering and Glazing
-Awareness of Illusion (Sharpness, Contrast, Saturation)
-Great understanding of working process of a longer painting.
-Expand on your experience with the previous project and deal with transparent, reflective and other interesting surfaces.
